There has been four diamond division clan wars now and if you placed in the top three for all four of them you have unlocked the complete war cry set . For right now there isn't anything else that is diamond exclusive except for the diamond division leader boards. So if they don't add anything else will you be opting out and going back to the 5 day clan war where you can play at your convienance or will you stick with the three 4 hour time slots. Note that it has been stated there is no guarantee what division you will be placed in if you opt out possibly bronze .

I think my group is opting out now we have full War Cry. Our main reason is that we had a guy join us late on and he needs to win a clan war for the Body Count uniform so we're going back to earn that for him.

Can't argue with that . If diamond is supposed to be better than the rest and body count only goes to first place war cry should as well. Nothing against the clans that got it but for a clan to earn war cry before they have gotten the compete set of body count seems backwards. That is more of a stab at the system and not the clans. Idea

This should have been in place from the start.. I believe it was only ment to be for top 3 1st DD war ..and the othrr 3 had to come 1st ..but if this is not the case I don't agree with it atall ..same system should of applied as body count 1st ONLY!! now we have othet clans (no disrespect) that have just sailed in 3rd place the past 4 times who have it all..allthey had to do was capture oone or two nodes on one occasion to place..its bull and think it needs sorting! Earn it not be given cause you opt in...unliked many of us who dominated over the rest. .

As bareb said we got the war cry.. could quite happily never do another clan wars ever again if it wasnt for getting our buddy the rest of his body count uniform . diamond was a joke , normal wars are pointless and flawed.

Tbf I think they should add another division for maybe I dunno part invisible camos like a head...headless gamers lol.. who wouldn't want an invisible head no more headshots lol. for say maybe 7-10 DD wins ...this would keep gamers attracted to the games life!..and keep us in these wars...

Obviously no sense of imagination^^^^.. serious gamer^^^ cannot have a laugh^^^^...remember its a game and games are to have fun....DD was and still is a bit of fun so why not add more fun stuff to the game???....I mean they already added Michael myres n the predator ( who let me remind you turns invisible while standing still)....

We got the diamond invite. Our clan has not decided whether to opt in or not. Personally I could care less about the rewards. I play clan wars for the competition of it. I'd prefer diamond for the scheduling. I don't want to opt into diamond to face a bunch of clans that are inactive because they "got theirs" already. I sure hope that for those of you that don't intend to play clan wars anymore, you opt out of diamond. I'd rather have a tough battle for 3rd than a free ride to first.

Let me asure you this has been the case in every war in DD we have been put in ...3 out of 7 play ..n when they realise the can't win ...or have placed 3rd they don't bother...at least in Platinum it was a challenge

So far in platinum, my experience has not been an easy ride. Somehow, we always face active clans. We battled hard for a 5th 4 wars back. 1st and 2nd had over 900 cp. After that we battled hard and switched between first and second, only to fall to 2nd on the last day, "monday blues" scenario. Last two wars we won 1st by over 200cp, but it was no free ride. We were more organized and had better strategy. If diamond is at least as competitive, I expect we would do well to place 3rd. I would be happy with that.

Wish our clan war experience was more competitive. Last 2 wars the lead clan has basically clinched 1st by Friday. We've tried to keep up but just can't. Easily finished second in both but at least 4 of the other clans were inactive. They need to improve match making & possibly make clans "opt in" to all clan wars, not just dd, to weed out the inactive clans.

Now there is something me and you can actually agree on. I do wish every division had an opt in or out. And I also wish that if you opt into diamond and fail to score you should be dropped to platinum until you win there again.

:-). Agree. I also think they should do away with the top 3 automatically staying. Make it based on % with respect to lead clan or something like that. Competitive clans stay, ones that aren't drop back & have to regroup & work their way back up.

Actually, now that you mention it, this terrifies me. My clan has been competitive in platinum, (3rd, 2nd, 3rd in last three wars.). If we get flooded again with all the hardcore diamond clans, it'll be a major blowout. I hope they stay in diamond for the leaderboard thing, but I may be looking at another long stay down in the gold division.

We just placed in our second diamond war and got our first diamond win (which will complete bodycount for most of our clan and give us half of warcry). We have 3 leaders and the topic of what to do after we finish warcry has already come up. We will likely go back to regular wars because we have new members who do not have full sets of bodycount. This will allow those members to be more active as their schedules allow so they can earn the bodycount rather than getting a free ride so to speak. We have found that in regular wars you can get away with less members playing at once vs diamond where you need essentially everybody participating to be competitive.

Participation tends to be the same in both. Both types of CW's tend to get around three clans who basically no-show, and three clans who try. What makes the regular clan wars 'seem' more competitive, is that 1) it's easier to score (and show activity), and 2) there's more time involved over five days.

Diamond has more firmed/fixed scheduling, but IF you can make that schedule work, you end up putting in 1/10th or less time. If things go well, you can win and essentially be done in four hours. If you smash people quickly (as most clans will quit)
